A video titled 'Unfinished Business' appeared on the Springboks' social media channels this week and spoke of Ireland as a "new contender" - yet these two rugby nations have been going head to head for 118 years.

Their first meeting came in Belfast in November of 1906, with South Africa winning 15-12 thanks to a last-minute try from winger Anton Stegmann.

The Springboks have certainly had the better of the rivalry, winning 18 of the 28 Tests played between the sides.

However, ahead of the latest chapter in Pretoria on Saturday, Ireland can look back on some famous wins against the four-time World Cup winners.
